Although quite surprising considering the beauty of this country, Myanmar is still relatively unknown to the general public. Nevertheless, many travellers return from this marvellous destination with a strong desire to discover more and to even come back on a family trip to Myanmar to share the beauty with their loved ones.
We often have this image of a country which would be exclusively linked to "backpackers" and those more inclined to discover the country with a minimum of comfort. But a family trip to Myanmar is just as exciting an experience, and the numerous hotel options offering comfortable accommodation is perfectly suited for families.
Since the opening of the country to tourism a few years ago, the profile of travellers wishing to live the Burmese experience has also changed. Nowadays, going on a family trip to Myanmar offers the chance to discover the country at a Zen pace, to admire the landscapes and experience the cultural curiosities with your loved ones.
Family-friendly activities
Several places and activities in particular lend themselves to a family trip to Myanmar, which will delight young and old alike. Going for a leisurely bike ride between the temples of Bagan or through the tea plantations of Inle Lake is one of the must-do activities on a family holiday to Myanmar. You also have the chance to meet the elephants at an elephant protection park while relaxing in the evenings at hotels that offer lots of activities and spaces for the whole family.
In addition, the legendary kindness of the Burmese, and their curiosity towards visitors constitute bridges of cultural exchanges that will be the highlight of your family trip to Myanmar. So, visit Myanmar and sit at the foot of a century-old pagoda watching the sunset, while your children play hopscotch or bungee cord with local Burmese children. Because yes, being in Myanmar with family is above all a series of heartfelt encounters, despite the possible language barrier, and the children are there to prove it.
